From fat storage to immune hubs: the emerging role of adipocytes in coordinating the immune response to infection

The FEBS Journal, Volume 292, Issue 8, Page 1868-1883, April 2025.
Traditionally, adipocytes have been viewed as energy storage units, which upregulate inflammatory factors in response to obesity. However, emerging evidence demonstrates that adipocytes are highly responsive to systemic infection, and upregulate cytokines and antimicrobial compounds in response.

Genetic Resistance to African Trypanosomiasis

Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1984
Genetic resistance to African trypanosomiasis occurs in certain breeds of livestock, many species of wildlife, some strains of mice, and possibly humans. The term trypanotolerance is used to describe this trait, which in domestic livestock is best exhibited by the indigenous West African taurine breeds of cattle, N'Dama and West African Shorthorn, that

Crystal structures of trypanosoma brucei oligopeptidase B broaden the paradigm of catalytic regulation in prolyl oligopeptidase family enzymes [PDF]

, 2013
Oligopeptidase B cleaves after basic amino acids in peptides up to 30 residues. As a virulence factor in bacteria and trypanosomatid pathogens that is absent in higher eukaryotes, this is a promising drug target.
